Description & Summary

The purchases of natural gas, tainted with geopolitical and regulatory issues, are becoming increasingly complex. They require strong expertise and well-thought-out forecasting and hedging models in advance. Thus, option strategies, with a natural gas / LNG mix, can be essential for an industrial company sourcing directly.

Similarly, fluctuations require contracts to be negotiated well in advance before their term to avoid serious disappointments.
